7 Best Tex-Mex Restaurants in Fairfax

“Went tonight. Am a Texan who used to go to the original back in the early 1990s on Barton Springs. I was impressed. Got the combo fajitas, where were very good especially for the price. A lot of meat (I asked for only meat and cheese). Service was excellent, inside was very nice. I had low expectations as the one by me in Dallas sucked (and closed), but this was solid. Peer to Guapo's which I like, but had more meat for about the same price. Expect I will go back. Thanks.“

“This place is kind of small hole in the wall. Seats about 14 or so outside and not many more people inside. Nice menu that's not too large or too small. Some Tex-Mex menus have way too many choices. The starter tortilla chips and salsa were top notch. Service all around was excellent. I had the Chicken Chimichanga and it was one of the best I've ever had. It came with rice and refried beans as well as pico, sour cream, guacamole, and lettuce. Everything was delicious, cooked perfectly, and reasonably priced. The presentation was great as well Can't wait to come back.“

“Great food, don’t like that I cannot see my order at checkout and am just told what i owe. I like to see the itemization.“

“The name is a little misleading. They serve authentic Latin American cuisine. Not a huge place, seating is limited. Consider takeout. I’m a huge fan of their salteñas and fried plantains. Very affordable. Entree portions are generous in my opinion. I’ve only been for lunch and dinner. The bakery case has lots of treats that I need to explore.“

“This was the first time I have eaten here. OMG! The Anitarita is to die for!!!! The food was delicious and well presented. We will definitely be returning!“

“My wife and I were here with our five kids today. We love this place - terrific food, great service, prices are high, but not above competition. We enjoy coming here every few weeks. But if Spanberger and her cohort in Richmond pass the insane slew of new taxes (and Fairfax County follows suit, as they often do) then this great restaurant (and pretty much all others) will lose our business, for sure, in protest. When my fellow Virginians start voting smarter we'll be able to visit establishments like this again.“

“Good food and drinks. Manager came to our table to make sure everything was good.“
